SIV course

Flyeo SIV course on Lake Annecy

Organizer: Flyeo

A two- or three-day SIV course by Flyeo over Lake Annecy, run separately in English and in French. Before the course pilots fill in a questionnaire and get access to online material on goal setting, mental preparation, the school's methods, manoeuvres and reserve deployment. The first day starts with a harness and reserve check, followed by up to three flights a day over the water with radio guidance from the instructor and a debrief after every flight, also on video. The course puts equal weight on precise piloting and on handling stress: pilots repeat each exercise until they perform it consciously, and at the end they receive an assessment of their technical and mental skills and a list of exercises to practise at home. The school provides a life jacket, radio and earpiece, and course videos are included.
